Hi guys! I am new to the forum.
Basically I have an uncle who is doing a little solar project.
He has a problem where he says that when he is the charging his batteries with a controller, the voltage near the terminals apparently increases before the batteries reach that potential (the batteries are charging but its a fake potential across the electrodes or something). The charge apparently takes some time to spread across the batteries.
This causes the controller to use lower current to charge the batteries. Which slows down the charging and he can't completely charge the batteries in that time.
I don't know anything about batteries, so I don't know what's going on here. Google hasn't helped much.
What is going on here? How does a controller detects batteries potential anyway?
Is fake potential across battery terminals actually a thing. Does charge takes time to spread across the battery?
And how can this problem be solved? So that the current doesn't drop at least till batteries are 70% charged.
